Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Surpasses 1 Million Sales, Declared 'Triumph' by Dev

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the medieval action RPG sequel from Warhorse Studios, has achieved phenomenal success, selling one million copies within a single day of its February 4th release across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.

The game quickly ascended to the top ranks of Steam's most-played games, peaking at 159,351 concurrent players. This surpasses the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance's peak of 96,069 concurrent players achieved seven years prior. The actual peak player count is likely even higher, considering console sales, though those figures aren't publicly available from Sony or Microsoft.

Warhorse Studios celebrated the launch as a "triumph," a significant achievement for the Czech developer and its parent company, Embracer subsidiary Plaion. Currently, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 holds the top spot on Steam's global best-selling games list by revenue, outperforming titles like Counter-Strike 2, Civilization 7, and Monster Hunter: Wilds, indicating strong sustained sales.

IGN awarded Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 a 9/10 rating, praising its "excellent melee combat and exceptional story," calling it "one part sequel and one part coronation."
